rhouses Cankles-McJeggings Take solace in knowing you have the natural booster in you now. Maybe a check up is in order once you test negative. My dad just got it, and while all the symptoms were mostly negligible, we still did a full body check up and ECG after. It would seem long COVID is leading to heart attacks which aren’t being counted as COVID deaths. But again, maybe this is just the media getting to me.
Cankles-McJeggings rhouses I’m day 9 now and still pretty fucked. Not sure if I’ll bother but if the migraine continues I might. Also have complete loss of taste this time which I didn’t the first time either. If this so called Omicron is supposed to be better than the first fucker I had then it ain’t happening for me. It’s the opposite. Trusting I have Omicron that is. Who knows.
Mad_Cyril Dermo’s got the sniffles and Dave is the second coming of Pol Pot? What a start to the day! Hope you feel better soon 👍
bosstrabs Cankles-McJeggings Also have complete loss of taste this time Looking at the trabs thread, Rhouses can empathise here.
alistair Cankles-McJeggings speedy recovery. Sounds like the symptoms I had the first time round at Christmas 2020. I wince still thinking about those headaches. I hadn’t however been vaccinated by then.
303abuser Cankles-McJeggings Hope you feel better soon. Omicron is really only “less severe” than delta, it’s worse than every version prior, the media has fucked up the messaging on it pretty badly. Not sure if it’ll help with the migraines, but make sure you stay well hydrated (electrolytes, not just water). Every time I had a headache land on me, that worked to kill it, but migraines are a different thing.
RichM bosstrabs fair enough. I sometimes wish I had made a move abroad earlier on my life to experience a different culture, although China is a huge cultural difference so not sure I could have managed that. Fair play to you though, and hope you recover from covid soon
bosstrabs RichM Fair play to you though, and hope you recover from covid soon I’ve not got the Miley, mate. Dermo has.
-si- Cankles-McJeggings No different than living in Germany during the Nazi occupation. Thats why we call him Achtung Davy!
seanc80 I cant get the vision out of my head, of Dave’s cold, lifeless hands gripping onto barb wire in a Chinese concentration camp whilst being pistol whipped by an angry guard.
hugopal Smallman1 a kid in my school class’s dad was the man from Del Monte. Well, at least he was a man from Del Monte.
Millsy If it were to all go Pete Wong in China, at least Dave can seamlessly blend into a crowd of locals and make his escape without fear of capture.
bosstrabs Remember at high school when you’d say to the one Chinese kid “You chink you are funny? You are wong!” I’d just run round saying that, like a sort of court jester. They absolutely love it. Especially when you do ‘the eyes’ with it.
rhouses bosstrabs India passed a law a couple of years ago where you can get arrested for using the term “chinky” - mostly for the folks from the North East (Nagaland, Assam etc). Who deal with this crap all the time when they’re in the big metros. Fair play imo.
